In this shiur, delivered at Mevaseret Mishmar "Unplugged" (last Mishmar of the Zman), Rav Burg shared a Vort from the Noviminsker Rebbe zt"l who explains why in the Mishkan they collected not only gold and silver but even copper. A Yeshiva is a place where even boys who don't obviously shine are a cherished part of the Yeshiva. Only when we value the copper Talmidim can we be considered a true Mishkan.

Where did they get the ideas that the big sin of כְּלַל יִשְׂרָאֵל was either a.) נֶהֱנוּ מִסְּעֻדָּתוֹ שֶׁל אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹשׁ or b.) הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ לַצֶּלֶם? It is not in the text of the Megilah, is it?

MAY THE ZECHUS OF ALL THE TZADDIKIM PROTECT US FROM ALL TZAROS, AND MAY HASHEM GRANT US, AND ALL OF KLAL YISROEL, YESHUOS, NECHAMOS AND BESUROS TOVOS!!! --------------------------------------------------------- Yahrtzeit Yomi #1326!! Rav Mordechai Gifter Rav of Waterbury CT Today, 23 Teves, marks the 24th Yahrtzeit of Rav Mordechai Gifter ZTL (1915 - 2001). The connection between the Talmidim of Waterbury and Rav Gifter ZTL is as poignant as it is obvious: Rav Gifter was the revered and beloved Rav of the fledgling Waterbury community from 1941 until 1944!! Rather than my own feeble attempt at portraying Rav Gifter's thoughts as to his years as Rav of the Waterbury Kehilla, I will heretofore transcribe Rav Gifter's own words (Rav Gifter was renowned for his impeccable eloquence and unique oratory skills). The following is excerpted from remarks which Rav Gifter delivered as the Opening Lecturer of the Community Lecture Series in Cleveland Ohio, in the year 1991, on the topic of “Diversity in Orthodoxy”: “Good evening my friends. When I was asked to speak tonight, on the influence of the Telshe Yeshiva upon the Jewish community, I wasn't aware of the fact that it was part of a discussion on Diversity in Orthodox Judaism. You see, my friends, I'm not an Orthodox Jew. I'm at Torah Jew! Orthodoxy is strange to me. For years and years, I've been saying this over and over again, that this Greek term “or·tho·dox” doesn't quite well describe what we Torah Jews believe in. And therefore, I will not be engaged in “orthodoxy” tonight, but rather in speaking a bit about Torah Jews..........” (Rav Gifter then shares his own personal feelings regarding his efforts in planting the seeds in the “beginnings of the Waterbury Kehilla”....) “I was in the rabbinate (in Waterbury Connecticut). It was a lucrative rabbinate, and I was able to live as a Torah Jew in the rabbinate (in Waterbury), although my congregants were far from that. But they listened to everything I said, as far as the community was concerned. As individuals, they were far from Torah Jews. And they were even very far from what you would call “Orthodox Jews”! But it was a wonderful kehilla in Waterbury Connecticut!! But when my uncles, the Roshei HaYeshiva, asked me to leave the rabbinate (in Waterbury), and come to (Cleveland) to help build the yeshiva, I said ‘I'm going to do it'. It meant giving up a great deal as far as means of a livelihood, and many other benefits, but it meant building Toireh!! And I didn't feel that in Waterbury I would be able to begin building Toireh. Even though we had launched the beginnings of a day school, a kindergarten; work which was continued by a wonderful colleague of mine, Rav (Abba Zalka) Gewirtz, zol ehr langeh lebben, who followed me there, who built a complete day school in Waterbury...... “So I left Waterbury, and came here to Cleveland.........” [see WhatsApp group for remainder]

"Love your enemies. Pray for those who persecute you. Flee lust. Pursue reconciliation. Don’t worry." Is Jesus serious? His ways seem too narrow.

The Talmidim of Jesus are not just Christians who like what the rabbi Jesus says, but who choose to be in proximity and become fully like their rabbi. This year we are exploring what it means to be a church community that is formed by nothing other than Jesus. The process of becoming like Jesus is a lifelong journey of being like Jesus in thought, word, and deed. Join us this year as we explore and conform to the way […] The post Becoming Like Jesus appeared first on Pine Lake Covenant Church.

In this exceptionally deep shiur delivered in Tomer Devorah Rav Burg explores the nature of sibling rivalry as it relates to Galus. From Yaakov and Eisav to Yosef and his brothers and ultimately to Rav Akiva's Talmidim, Galus is a product of the wounds we do not heal and the healing words left unsaid. Only through communication will we let go of resentment and choose love. Source sheet can be found at www.sefaria.org/sheets/563324

In this shiur, delivered in Aish HaTorah to the Chizzuk Mission, Rav Burg explores how we can increase joy even in times of great tragedy. Rav Akiva woke up his Talmidim by explaining that Esther HaMalka ruled over 127 countries because Sarah Imeinu lived for 127 years. Al though the years of Sarah's life were far from simple, she found the good in every moment and that is how we survive and thrive even in the darkest moments of our exile.

Yahrtzeit Yomi #949!! ו אדר Rav Dovid Povarsky רב יהושע דוד ב״ר שלום ראש ישיבת פוניבז׳ (1902 - 1999) Special 25th Yahrtzeit Edition!! ---------------------------------------------- Today, Thursday, 6 Adar, marks the 25th Yahrtzeit of Rav (Yehoshua) Dovid Povarsky ZTL, Rosh Yeshiva of the Ponovezh Yeshiva in Bnei Brak. In his youth, Rav Dovid was a close talmid of Rav Aaron Kotler ZTL in the Slutzk Yeshiva, and later joined the Mirrer Yeshiva where he developed his lifelong connection to the Mashgiach, Rav Yerucham Levovitz ZTL. After World War I, he married and moved to Baranovitch where he became a chavrusa of the Rosh Yeshiva, Rav Elchonon Wasserman ZTL. Rav Dovid's reputation spread, and he received an invitation to join the staff of the noted Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, which he ultimately declined, preferring instead to continue learning and teaching in Baranovitch. For more than half a century, Rav Dovid served as Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivas Ponovezh in Bnei Brak, where he taught and guided thousands of worthy disciples, who staunchly continue the legacy of the venerated Rosh Yeshiva until today. For several decades, Rav Dovid's daily routine was to awaken at 3 AM, and to walk from his home in Bnei Brak to the nearby Ponovezh Yeshiva, where he would learn Torah until Shacharis. Nothing would impede him from this regimen; neither inclement weather, nor declining health. Like a disciplined soldier in the royal guard, Rav Dovid maintained his post, studying assiduously for a four-hour, uninterrupted stretch, come what may. In his later years, after he had slipped and fallen twice, his family, concerned for his safety, arranged for two of his closest Talmidim to escort him daily. Once, during a very stormy, windy night, while walking to the Yeshiva, Rav Dovid remarked to his escorts: “Heint der Alter hut mir gekummen mevaker tzu zayn (The Alter came to visit me today)”. (The Talmidim instinctively assumed that one of the great Mashgiachim from the Lithuanian Yeshivos must have appeared to Rav Dovid in a dream.) “Fuhn Kelm? Udder fuhn Slabodka? (Was it the Alter of Kelm? Or the Alter of Slabodka?)”, one of the escorts asked. “Nayn, nayn” corrected Rav Dovid, “nit fuhn der sort Alter (not that type of Alter)”. “‘Der Alter' who visited me this morning was much older than both of those”, remarked Rav Dovid with a slight smile. “This ‘Alter', although referred to by our sages as an ‘old stupid king', can actually be quite cunning.” The talmidim henceforth understood that the “Alter” to which the Rosh Yeshiva was referring, was to none other than the Yetzer Hara himself!! Realizing that there was much to learn from this seemingly casual exchange, one of the Talmidim asked, “What did the Yetzer Hara think he could accomplish by visiting the Rosh Yeshiva in the predawn hours? Couldn't he have found a more suitable acquaintance to visit with??” “Lummer dir eppis masbir zayn - let me explain,” said the Rosh Yeshiva. “Today, the Yetzer Hara suggested that I stay in bed for just an additional five minutes, based on an extremely logical premise: the entire world is now enjoying a sound, uninterrupted sleep. Wouldn't it be appropriate to heed the dictum of Chazal: ׳אל תפרוש מן הציבור׳ - ‘Never detach yourself from the congregation'? He even reasoned that it would be improper to rise from bed, as that would constitute a violation of the aforementioned teaching of Chazal!!
